The Board of Education

School Board members are elected officials who devote many hours setting policies and planning for your public schools. We serve on the School Board because we care about providing quality education in our community. Popular control of public education is one of the cornerstones of a free society. The people exercise that control through their Board of Education. We appreciate your interest and comments and ask your participation to help us meet that goal.

The Maple Heights Board of Education encourages school staff and community members to attend its meetings.

The first Maple Heights Board of Education was organized in 1924 during which, forty-five students began their high school studies in the old town hall. By 1928, school officials recognized the need for a larger high school. Clement which had opened in 1925, was selected to be the site of the high school which opened in 1931. By 1930, the population of Maple Heights had reached 5,950. Four public schools were in operation with an enrollment of 1,188 pupils and a staff of forty teachers. What was once Maple Grove dedicated in 1933, then came to be known as GrangerSchool.
